I've taken over the package and upgraded to version 5.002-1. This is my
very first debian package, so I only put it in private/project/Incoming
and asked people to comment on it on debian-devel. I wanted to make
sure that I did it correctly before making it available for public
consumption.

This is still in 5.002-1. I just took most parts of it and changed what
I needed to make ver 5.002-1. This line is still in there. I am
checking right now to see if it is necessary. I'm using the installperl
script to install it now since it gets rather complex to install these
days.

Maybe, probably, yes.

I'll do this if I need to but I doubt it will be necessary.
